Which statement explains the first law of thermodynamics?

Physics

Korolek [52]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The right answer among the options is that: Heat is transformed, but not created or destroyed.

Explanation:

The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy, and that thermodynamic processes are subject to the principle of conservation of energy.

This implies that heat energy cannot be created or destroyed. However, energy can be transferred from one location to another and converted to and from other forms of energy.

Thus, the right answer among the options is that:Heat is transformed, but not created or destroyed.

Two golf balls are hit from a flat field, each at an angle 30o above the horizontal. Initial speed of ball 2 is twice the initia
Lapatulllka [165]
The range, R, of a projectile based on its angle of projection ∅ and velocity v can be directly calculated by:
R = (v²sin2∅)/g
Let the v of ball 1 be v₁
R₁ = (v₁²sin(2*30))/g
v₂ = 2v₁
R₂ = ((2v₁)²sin(2*30))/g
R₂ = 4[(v₁²sin(2*30))/g]
R₂ = 4R₁
So ratio of d2/d1 = 4

A test charge is placed at a distance of 2.0 × 10-1 meters from a charge of 5.4 × 10-8 coulombs. What is the electric field at t
Alborosie
The electric field E of a charge is defined as E=F/Q where F is the Coulomb force and Q is the test charge. 

E=(1/Q)*k*(q*Q)/r², where k=9*10^9 N*m²/C², q is the point charge, Q is the test charge and r is the distance between the charges.

So E=(k*q)/r² 

When we input the numbers we get that electric field E of a point chage q is:

E=(9*10^9)*(5.4*10^-8)/0.2²=486/0.04=12150 N/C.
This is roughly E=12000 N/C =1.2*10^4 N/C
The correct answer is B.

A +3.4 x 10-6 C test charge experiences forces from two other nearby charges: a 3 N force due east and a 15 N force due west. Wh
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

3.53×10⁶ N/c due west

Explanation:

From the question

E = F'/q........................ Equation 1

Where E =  Electric Field, F = Net Force, q = Charge.

But,

F' = F₂-F₁...................... Equation 2

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

E = (F₂-F₁)/q................ Equation 3

Given: F₁ = 3 N due east, F₂ = 15 N due west,  q = 3.4×10⁻⁶ C

Substitute these values into equation 1

E = (15-3)/(3.4×10⁻⁶)

E = 12/(3.4×10⁻⁶)

E = 3.53×10⁶ N/c due west
